2024-03-22I love Pearl! I always get a dip polish manicure. I have had many different nail techs, and all of them have been wonderful. The salon itself is clean and well designed. They offer water or drinks, which is very nice. Because I’ve had different nail techs there’s sometimes variety in my dip polish manicures, but all of them are quite good overall. Everyone I have met has been friendly and they are very efficient and polite. At most I’ve only ever waited like two minutes. The nitpicky thing that I enjoy is that they rarely cut my cuticles. I love the salon and I’m going to be so sad when I move and can’t visit them anymore!!!

2021-07-15LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS PLACE! My friend and I followed our wonderful nail technicians, Cece and Mai, to Pearl Nails and it is so pretty! Everything is extremely clean and there is a relaxing ambiance. The salon is a small, family business and everyone is super friendly! Nail prices are comparable to everywhere else. I get dip powder nails which always looks stunning. I usually get solid colors but they can also do wonderful designs! For the best service, I suggest calling ahead and making an appointment. My friend and I never plan to switch salons as we have fallen in love with the talent and love Pearl Nails has to offer.

2024-11-03I needed a pedicure ASAP since my toes were definitely not on point, and my daughter recommended Pearls Nail and Spa. I’m so glad she did! Brandon, my nail technician, was absolutely amazing—super thorough with every detail of my pedicure, from perfectly cleaning up the cuticles to choosing the perfect shade of brown polish. His attention to detail was impeccable, and the nail art was simple yet so cute. Highly recommend this place to both locals and non-locals (I’m from Michigan and will be spreading the word!). If you're in the area and need some pampering, go get those toes done at Pearls Nail and Spa. Tell them Lacy sent you!
